Easy jewelry with everyday items?
My aunts birthday is coming up and I need some ideas or tutorials for making jewerly. I want it to be pretty, but unique. The thing is I don’t have a lot of crafty stuff at my home. I don’t want to have to go and get something.
Here’s some of the stuff I have:
fabric and felt
beads
yarn
perler beads
glitter glue
magazines
I also have a few other things. I know how to sew and crochet.
Thanks for the help!! I really appreciate all the input!
here are some suggestions.. sorry if they arent good. im a 12 year old jewelry designer so i have thousand of dollars in just beads and tools, not used to not getting the right stuff for jewelry but here is what i would do if i was limited like you…
you can make felt beads like ones online
just string the beads you have right now
decorate some beads with yarn or roll them into tiny yarn balls for beads
use perler beads as spacers and the other ideas to make jewelry
use colorful magazine pictures and glitter glue to make pretty paper beads and string them with the perler beads and beads that you already have.
my favorite idea is the paper bead one with the magazines…
hope this helps
